What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Common problems we fix in Haddington
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- An original basin worth saving
- A crazed, tired basin
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Before you book anyone
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How long it needs to cure
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Haddington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you’re in Haddington and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
